Wisdom for a Life of Freedom

Contrary to common modern interpretation, yoga practice was not intended to be merely for one's own self-validation, glorification, and satisfaction. It's the basis and foundation of self-less service to Life.

Here is an interview of Jonathan by Green Planet FM, regarding the Kogi and their message for humanity. Their message is the message of Great Mother and the Living Earth...

The following is the closing session at the Hrdaya Yoga (Unit One) retreat held in Toronto, April 2009. The topic explored was Emotional Integration through the Heart.

At various points Jonathan is pointing to energy centres in the body whilst talking. Here is a reference of what he is pointing to at those times (minutes:seconds):

12:26 - Pointing to lower three chakras, to base chakra especially

13:12 - Pointing to solar plexus

13:51 - Refering to how we have opened into the dynamics of the 1st, 2nd, and now 3rd chakras

13:53 - Refering to how we are now opening into the early stages of the heart centre

13:56 - Lower 2-3 energy centres

14:47 - Refering to lower three energy centres

15:04 - "As we open into" the heart

15:13 - "By approaching all this"... the lower three energy centres

15:28 - "If we are only approaching it from here..." - the rational mind

15:37 - "People will experience they are going this way..." - from the ground up

17:07 - the lower three energy centres / chakras

17:29 - Indicating a head to base chakra connection, without going through the heart

39:45 - "...only got the vision at this level..." - Pointing to his eyes

Total length:  1:06 (1 hour, 6 minutes)

In this audiocast we shall take a look at the veil of concepts in the mind and the experience that resides behind that veil... freely accessible to those who dare to go beyond it, for those who dare to let their concepts go. Awareness and bliss are forever present, forever at hand for those who open their hand and let go of what it tightly holds.

Here’s some piano music for your enjoyment.

I generally play with my eyes closed… often early in the morning or late at night.Due to not looking at the keyboard I sometimes hit the keys incorrectly (like overlapping onto the neighbouring key), so sometimes things will clash a little. As I am recording this live there is no way to make corrections. Some day I'll have a keyboard that inputs into a computer... then I'll be able to correct the obvious errors.

Technically I don’t know how to play the piano and have no idea what key I am in, but somehow I manage to get by intuitively and for the most part it sounds like music!! Increasingly people tell me they enjoy the music that arises when I sit at a piano, so here it is for you to also enjoy.

On this page is a list of all the various songs I have made available on the blog for easy access to them all. You can play them below...

If you start a new player before another one has finished, remember to pause the other one first.
